Field Guide To Western Bird Songsby Roger Torrey PetersonHM5 Houghton Mifflin 1962This is a strange and beautiful album. Strange, because the effect of listening to this album was totally unexpected. One would assume this would be an album for bird watchers. There are many of them, and certainly it was made for this group. It might also be coveted by documentarians. What made it strange, is that it is a wonderful listen on it's own by someone who does not fall into either of those two camps. It has a soothing effect, much like being in the wilds or in nature, itself. A very hard to find album. This one is in nice condition. It has some background noise, but it does not interfere with the sounds, which of course are low, to any great extent. Available for sale on Etsy.
